Developed nations are fighting to come out of slowdown; emerging economies are facing their own difficulties. These are challenging times for the world economy and India,with slowing growth and falling investment,has its own set of circumstances to tackle. An apt time for a powwow with Ruchir Sharma,head of emerging markets at Morgan Stanley Investment Management,and widely read global financial analyst. Sharma will be guest tomorrow at Express Adda a series of interactions with individuals at the centre of change in our times.

The discussion will be moderated by Uday S. Kotak,vice-chairman and MD of Kotak Mahindra Bank,and Shekhar Gupta,Editor-in-chief of The Express Group.
